Building Self-Confidence Through Exercise

3/7/2016

I was recently asked, "What makes Specialty Athletic Training unique?" The short answer, the population that we serve. But there is a lot more to it than providing fitness programs to our clients with special needs. We customize our workouts to be fun and tailored to our clients' general interests. We make sure that they are successful and build their self-confidence and self-esteem to a place where they feel comfortable challenging themselves. There is no better example of that than our client Lily in the video below.

 Motivation and self-confidence were two major road blocks in the way of our friend Lily's fitness journey. She wanted us to take this video to show to EVERYONE how well she can do her straight arm plank! Looks like now motivation and self-confidence are more like speed bumps in her path to living a healthy and active lifestyle!
